Jodi Endicott is currently working
on an installation of three life size figures that depict
how students are educated at Makalapa Elementary School.
Titled "The Way We Learn", this work includes
a Hawaiian teacher being read to by a 6th grade boy.
Although he is the one reading to her, they are working
together. The teacher provides the support and the book
provides the knowledge as the boy is taking the initiative.
In front of them a kindergartner is using her critical
thinking skills to piece together a puzzle. She too
is working independently to solve this problem.
The sculptures are being created using
a stainless steel rod and mesh armature layered by hand
with concrete. The surface will contain other materials
including cast bronze and ceramics. |
